Having watched the series on BBC2 about St P with the architect
getting into a flap about his doodleflips being 2 inches out of whack
and others making a big fuss about the retail side and yet more people
having kittens about marks on the statue , I suspect thats almost
certainly the case. I realise you can't trust the BBC editing much
these days , but not once did we see anyone making any comment about
anything to do with signs or displays.

True, but virtually everything they covered was to do with all the froth and
frippery of the marketing and PR side of the final stages of the project.

Such a missed opportunity, there must have been more tales to tell about the
construction than the guy who struggled to get the retailers' roof panels up
in time

It must have been an immense challenge to design and complete such a complex
project in and around three massively busy stations (4 with Thameslink).
Pity we didn't learn anything about it.
